I cannot get over legitimately, the reality
|
Of my surroundings do not point to the sky
|
So why should I even try (when there's nuthin' out there to be)
|
I cannot grow up to be the president
|
Where only drug dealers own Mercedes Benz
|
If you tell me otherwise it will only look like lies (when there's
|
Nothing out there for me)
|
Your education will do me no good
|
In my neighborhood
|
All that I see is scrapin' and scrounging
|
In my neighborhood
|
If you can show me how to do good
|
In my neighborhood
|
Maybe I discontinue my lounging in my neighborhood
|
So many millions feel this strong
|
All these people can't be wrong
|
|
You should surely know this was a long time coming, You should
|
Know the effects were numbing you should know that yesterday
|
|
You may have had a chance to stop things before they start
|
You may have had a chance but it's too late because it's fallen apart
|
|
Sex education will do me no good in my neighborhood
|
Everybody's hoin' for something and it's understood that drug
|
Education can do me no good in my neighborhood
|
Well then maybe I'll discontinue my loungin' in my neighborhood
|
So many millions feel this strong
|
All these people can't be wrong
|
|
You beat me, mistreat me and you beat me
|
Rip my heart out please and then you get angry when I die
|
It's a pile of shit in your sugar shack
|
And I'm gonna step on in when I'm visiting
|
So I can drag it more all across the floor
|
|
It's a pile of shit in the White House
|
And I'm gonna step on in when I'm visiting
|
So I can drag it more all across the flag
|
